Canberrans are being called on to share their opinions on road safety cameras as part of a new survey being conducted by City Services and the Monash University Accident Research Centre (MUARC).

Inviting public opinion, City Services said the survey was part of an evaluation of the Territory’s Road Safety Camera Program, conducted every three years.

“As part of the evaluation, a community survey is being conducted to better understand community views on road safety cameras in the ACT,” City Services said.

“All licensed drivers from the ACT are welcome to participate,” it said.

“The ACT Road Safety Camera Program complements police enforcement as part of the Government’s speed management approach.”

City Services said the Program was currently comprised of 13 fixed red light/speed cameras; 13 fixed speed cameras at nine locations; one point-to-point camera; and 10 mobile camera vans.

It said people could have their say on the Program until 14 March.

“If you choose to participate, you will not be asked for any identifying information and all survey responses are anonymous,” it said.

“The anonymous survey responses will be stored at the Monash University Accident Research Centre on a secure server and only the researchers on the project team will have access.”

City Services said the data would be destroyed when it was no longer required.

The road safety camera survey can be accessed on MUARC’s website at this PS News link.
